- I found this book ~6 months ago in a bookstore, new. I also saw it
- alongside "Client/Server Programming with OS/2 2.0" in a Border's book
- store not more than 3 weeks ago. Granted, in both cases there was only
- one copy, and in the first case I was the person to buy the one copy :)
- -- along with the Client/Server book, which is also excellent. I also
- recommend "OS/2 Presentation Manager GPI", but with a little hesitation.
- It took me about 3 readings of this thing to figure out what the hell
- was going on. Its sooooo condensed its almost too much. (Every try
- learning C with K&R as your only reference? Well, its worse than that.)
